There's definitely a line from blank slate feminism (the idea that differences between men and women are solely driven by socialization) to transactivism.

It's pretty retarded. I've had women claim that they are literally identical to men before and I just laughed and asked them if they could impregnate someone?

I'm not in favor of needlessly discriminating against women. The idea that all women ever are ill suited to whatever job because they are women is stupid. But the same idea that women are ill suited to be, idk, some male dominated job, let's say exterminator.

Women who are not afraid of bugs and don't mind getting dirty and what is necessary to get it done, they're gonna be fine, men that can't stand the sight of a bug are gonna be shit at it. No reason to even bother "asking" what someone's sex is for such a job, utterly irrelevant. But I bet you'll find more male candidates unphased at the idea of killing gross icky bugs than female candidates.

The real question is who cares if there's a hiring discrepancy? So long as you don't bother to do stupid shit like deny women who actually want to be an exterminator for some reason, why care if there's a massive statistical sexual discrepancy in hiring? As long as people are free to choose their own jobs why does it matter if things are equal?
